RealNetworks announced a legal settlement Tuesday with longtime adversary Microsoft, ending the last major antitrust case against the world's largest software maker. RealNetworks said it had reached three deals with Microsoft worth up to $761 million. That includes a $460 million up-front cash payment to settle the antitrust dispute. Another part of the agreement gives RealNetworks an additional $301 million in cash and services designed to help the company's products reach a wider audience.
